Take locale into account in a macro

Added by Sergei Naumov about 1 year ago

Hi!
I need to display a due date for an issue in my macro. Using

link_to_issue(issue, :subject => false, :tracker => false) +  ", #{issue.due_date}"

works but the date is displayed in a format YYYY-MM-DD which does not take into account the locate set in Redmine settings (based on language it should be DD-MM-YYYY). How do I correct for this?

Redmine::I18n (which is available in all normal controller and view contexts by default) provides a format_date method which returns the goiven date as a formatted string according to the current user's locale. Your code could thus be adapted to

link_to_issue(issue, :subject => false, :tracker => false) +  ", #{format_date(issue.due_date)}"
